Monday's Newspapers:







The Daily Mail uses a variety of Media language to make the readers trust the Conservatives. For example, the use of lexis used instructs the reader to vote for the audience. The use of capital letters for the word 'MUST' commands the audience to go and vote for the Tory's. It is almost like war propaganda, like how they used posters to get people to go to the war. This is quite similar to the Daily Mirror's use of lexis. They use capital letters also to get their point across, however they use it in a way to mistrust they Conservatives. Their main heading is 'FOR THEM... VOTE LABOUR' with pictures of issues in the UK.
